Murray blood drive planned

Donating blood is a selfless act that can have a huge impact on the lives of hospital patients. Just one unit of donated blood can help save the lives of up to three different hospital patients, including people with cancer, blood disorders and victims of car accidents.

People can be a hero in their community by making a blood donation at an upcoming blood drive. Sign up to save a life today. Schedule a blood donation appointment online at lifeservebloodcenter.org or call 800-287-4903.

Murray Community Blood Drive is planned Thursday, May 7 from 3-7 p.m. at Murray Community Center, 416 Maple St.
